Just trying your software / Problem

I just downloaded and tried your software and had a small problem with the SQL connection string to MySQL not working. I swapped that for my usual conncection string and proceeded.
Problem #1

Includes called to the 'include' and 'Include' directory.
Problem #2
On the list page, when loading I get a javascript error as the page loads:-
Line 206

Char 45

Unterminated string constant

Code 0
The header reports 162 records (correct) page 1 of 9
but the first row's edit link has the text 'WritePagination(1,9); ' as the link
Any Ideas? and is there a way to NOT use javascript
Lastly, why do you use a PHP forum :-)

I had the same problem. From memory it was caused by a numerical field name in my SQL table.

Could this be your problem?
Cheers

Thanks for the idea, but no, I have no numerical fields in the DB. I also read the post about null values adn repeated values in primary keys, but the defined primary key is a MySQL autonumber, so its' not that.
I was rather hoping for a reply from admin, I saw him logged in earlier. Any idea how long they take to reply ?

Jm,
usually that means some data problem like nulls in primary key field.
Could you zip and send me your generated files along with script that creates required table structure. Just send it to support AT xlinesoft.com? I will run a test on local server to resolve a problem.
Regarding your other questions: Javascript is absolutely required for ASPRunner's functionality.
I will fix those directories names ( it works just fine on Windows box ).
And the last - I don't see anything wrong using PHP forum. It's good looking and stable software and I like it.
Best regards,

Hi Admin
Thanks for that, will do.
The part about the PHP forum was supposed to be a little irony (as you sell ASP DB software)
Are you useng Javascript for anything other than populating the form submit to pass data between fields. The reason I ask this is that I have a few site users who have javascript turned off (by their admin) in their browsers... thus killing any pages generated by your software completely.
I was really looking for a server script ONLY solution.
If you are only using JS for the form submit, I could code that out to write asp forms or use the querystring instead.

Hi,
I see what you saying about Javascript. Currently there are two big code parts that rely on Javascript - filling form fields before submit and creating [First, Prev ... Next, Last] navigation bar. Second one can be easily changed to pure server-side solution. To do the same with the first one you need to create separate HTML form for each Edit or Delete link on the list page. Using javascript I can handle it using just two forms.
Also Javascript is used for some minor things like asking confirmation before deleting record or setting focus on the search box when list page loads.
I could feel that irony about ASP vs PHP (Windows vs Unix actually ). <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=317&image=1&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' />

Nowdays will be more ironic if somebody if somebody uses the same OS for work, home and web hosting. I know people who develop enterprise-level Unix-based DHCP server spending more than 90% of their time writing and debugging code in Microsoft Visual C++ IDE just because it's more convenient.
